Are we lighting the way for others?

"I will make you a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth" (Is 49:6).

Blessed Teresa of Calcutta said that one time she heard someone ask a Hindu man, “What is a Christian?” He responded, “The Christian is someone who gives.” With that in mind, let us give of ourselves and light the way for others.

Totus Tuus

Immaculate Conception, Mary, my Mother. Live in me. Act in me. Speak in and through me. Think your thoughts in my mind. Love, through my heart. Give me your dispositions and feelings. Teach, lead and guide me to Jesus. Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior. Possess my soul. Take over my entire personality and life. Replace it with yourself. Incline me to constant adoration and thanksgiving. Pray in me and through me. Let me live in you and keep me in this union always. – Pope John Paul II

"Donna has submitted a number of articles that have found a place on the Catholic Exchange website, enriching our readers with her insights into the lives of modern women. She writes with a broad comprehension of the rapidly changing scene of this world, and with deep understanding of the challenges faced by Catholic women – and all women – today. It is clear from her writing that she believes in the power of women to make the world a better place and she is not afraid to challenge women to start that transformation in their own hearts and homes. Catholic Exchange readers have been very blessed to have Donna share her thoughts with them and as editor, I have been blessed by the high professional quality of Donna’s work." --Mary Kochan, Chief Editor

For ALL Catholic women

A Catholic Woman's Book of Prayers

With all the mixed messages that women receive from society today, women can be distracted from--and even unreceptive to--the deep and abiding love that Christ has for them. Whether single or married, religious or consecrated, parenting children, or spiritually mentoring others, women need to know that the Lord understands the many challenges they face, their desire for inspiration, and, above all, their need to be affirmed as women.Through this book of original and traditional prayers from one of the top ten most fascinating Catholics of 2009 as rated by Faith & Family Live, women can realize God's divine Love, thrive in inspiration from Saints and the Church and rest in the affirmation of the "feminine genius."

The International Congress, "Woman and Man, the Humanum in its Entirety"

"Donna Marie Cooper-O’Boyle, also a member of the U.S. delegation, left Rome feeling energized and willing to do her part to spread the message.'We feel so blessed to have been given this message but we represent everyone,' O’Boyle said.'We’re over there trying to absorb it all so that we can bring it back for everyone else.' The mission for everyone who attended the conference is to bring this message of healing and hope to women in the homes and communities and parishes and dioceses of the world. O’Boyle said.'And when they feel confident in their own dignity they’re going to be able to carry their head high and be that example and spread the message. That’s how it will be spread, one by one by one.' "(excerpt from "A New Season of Grace for Women" by Susan Brinkmann, OCDS)

The Cross and Pope Benedict XVI

The Cross is the definitive revelation of love and divine mercy, also for us, men and women of our time too often distracted by worldly and momentary concerns and interests. God is love and His love is the secret of our happiness. To enter into this mystery of love there is no other way than that of losing ourselves, giving ourselves, the way of the Cross.--Pope Benedict XVI

Mother Teresa, Servant of the Poor, Part 1 of 4

Mother Teresa, Servant of the Poor, Part 2 of 4

Words from Mother Teresa

"The poor do not need our compassion or our pity; they need our help. What they give to us is more than what we give to them."

Peace be with you!

"We must use the modern methods of making ourselves be heard in a reasonable way--or, better yet, of making the voice of the Lord accessible and comprehensible."--Pope Benedict XVI
